New to the forum here, I apologize if this has been answered but I can't seem to find any relevant threads by searching.
I separated from the Navy in 2008 as an E-4 nuke EM (not SRO qualified, medically separated early, qualified up through PE/ME), and decided to go to school full time. I received my B.S. in Biochemistry in 3 years and have been working in the biotech field for 2 1/2 years. I am considering a career change, and would like to leverage my experience as a navy nuke and my education/experience in the biological and chemical sciences. Are there many positions that will take advantage of both? What is the best way to overcome my time out of the nuke industry?
Thanks for any help!
In addition to what the others have said, you could probably get into the chemistry or engineering departments at a nuke as well. If Operations was in your interest, you'd be competitive for an NLO position.
Good luck!
Justin
